Patent EP-0047512-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BERNHARDT LUTZ DR RER NAT
IPC: G06V30/10
Filed: 1981-09-04
Abstract: A method and circuit for segmentation of characters from a serially-read character sequence scans the character sequence in a column-by-column format and intermediately stores portions or cut-outs of the scanned characters in the form of an image pattern matrix associated with each portion. The image patterns are thus offset by one column with respect to one another. For each image pattern, a coefficient memory stores several coefficients associated to the specific image pattern which are read out and summed to form a margin value which is associated with the average column of the individual image pattern matrix. A maximum value which occurs in the series of continuously formed margin values signifies a separating point for the associated column.

Abstract: An electric arc furnace arrangement of which the furnace is tiltably mounted on a supporting base. The arrangement according to the invention is characterised in that the bottom (13) of the furnace (1) has a geometry of circular profile in the plane of tilting  pi , in that the supporting base (6) is shaped, in its upper part, as a cradle (14) whose concavity matches the geometry of the bottom (13), and in that the cradle (14) is equipped with a set of guide rollers (15) on which the furnace rests. Preferably, the circular profile of the bottom (13) is so defined that the axis of tilting (17) of the furnace passes through the geometric centre (18) of the points of attachment (16) of the electric cables (5) to suspensions of the electrodes (3). By employing novel kinematics of tilting in accordance with a simple rotating movement of the furnace about the axis of tilting (17), the invention reduces the lateral travel of the points of attachment (16) and thus permits a reduction in the length of the electric cables (5) and hence, inter alia, a reduction of the impedance of the electrical arrangement. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of grinding a curved corner position of a workpiece by a grinding wheel having a curved edge surface whose radius is smaller than that of said curved corner portion. The grinding wheel is movable along a path extending at an acute angle to the axis of rotation of the workpiece. First, the grinding wheel is relatively moved to a first grinding start position. Then, the grinding wheel is moved inwardly to an advanced position along the path so as to perform a plunge grinding operation, and is subsequently retracted to the grinding start position. After that, the grinding wheel and the workpiece are relatively moved so as to move the grinding start position to the next grinding start position along a curved arc which is in parallel with the curved corner portion of the workpiece. The above plunge grinding operation is repeatedly performed from each grinding start position thereby grinding the curved corner position.

Abstract: Part of the flue gases from the gas or oilfired glass melting furnace is used to preheat the frit. The other part is used in a radiation recuperator to preheat the air of combustion. The two parts are then merged and used in a convective recuperator for an initial preheating of the air of combustion. One part of the flue gases from the melting furnace is directed to the preheater for frit in which the frit lies in a layer of under 5 cm thickness on a charging belt. Another part goes to the radiation recuperator to preheat the air of combustion to 800 deg.C. The two parts are merged at a convective recuperator which preheats the air of combustion from ambient to 500 deg.C. This recuperator is fitted with chains which are periodically vibrated to detach incrustations from the gas conducting tubes.

Abstract: A novel cannula is disclosed for use in the application of bone cement to the prepared intramedullary canal of a bone prior to the cementation of a surgical implant therein. The novel cannula comprises a hollow tube adapted to slidingly receive the nozzle of a bone cement extruder, an inflatable cuff surrounding the tube, and means to inflate the cuff. In operation, the inflated cuff forms a seal against the wall of the intramedullary canal, thereby preventing escape of cement through the open end of the prepared canal and insuring that the applied cement is properly pressurized within the canal. As a result, a highly secure cementation of the surgical implant within the intramedullary canal is achieved.

Abstract: An improved power semiconductor module (12a, 12b) includes a semiconductor die (14) which typically embodies a power semiconductor die such as a transistor or Darlington transistor pair thereon. The die (14) is fastened by solder bonding to the top side of an electrically conductive supporting plate (16) which has approximately the same thermal co-efficient of expansion as the die itself. Overlying the die (14) is a ceramic cover (18) whose lower edges (20) are typically metallized for solder bonding to the supporting plate (16) to obtain a hermetic seal about the die. Solder bond electrical connection to the top side of the die (14) is facilitated by electrodes (22, 24) which extend through passageways (21a 21b) in the ceramic die cover (18) for contact with the die. Each of the electrodes (22, 24) extending through the ceramic die cover (18) is typically solder bonded to the cover so that mechanical and thermal stresses are transmitted to the ceramic die cover (18) and not to the die (14). The ceramic die cover (18) not only protects the die (14) from mechanical and thermal stress, but also facilitates manufacturing of the semiconductor module (12a 12b) as the ceramic die cover (18) acts as an alignment and support fixture for the electrodes (22, 24) during assembly.
